Cheap Flights to Suwa from HK$364

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and discovering Suwa in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good choice.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Suwa, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
